Walking the Passage: Unabashedly His... Thousand steps and beyond ... I choose Him

Unabashedly His... Thousand steps and beyond ... I choose Him

Laying down settled in the knowledge of whose I am... Living fully within a world and yet also simultaneously belonging to another that is so other than this place

Longing for all that I am to be defined by that which He is.... Resting in the understanding that there is such a strong pull upon me to walk towards all that that entails....

I am free to choose Him and His ways

I am free to say that found within Him all my dreams come true... That found within Him I am strong.. That found within Him I am sane ... That found within Him I have affection and adoration and love that knows no measurement.. That found within Him I find peace for my soul no matter what the world may do

I can choose Him and reside where He is....

I can live so fully in Him and so fully in the world ... I'm told that is that which I am to do... In Him and of Him and in the world... He has not taken me out of it and He has given me much within it....

I can have peace and joy and strength... I can have so much in choosing Him .... So much that lasts forever and ever... So much that shows up the temporal nature of things for what they are

You.... Me.... Him that is what holds importance... Each other and our Lord... Our .... Us ...... Found in unity is a strength and a delight... We are to be family for all the ages to come....

Choosing Him and His ways .... Knowing that He sees and understands....

Following Him through all terrains of life as they flow upon the times of our days.... While there are moments often where I falter I can seriously think of no other way that I would ever want to walk....

I have journeyed other roads and even upon the thought of them I shudder.... I shudder at even the thought of a journey that does not have Him....

I will in His strength and His grace walk wherever He leads as long as He leads for any path that He leads is one thousand times and beyond worth walking than even one single step without Him

Dwelling with Him as I walk my days and times living as He would live... Seeing as He sees and doing as He does ... Is all I long for...

Dwelling and walking with Him and learning His ways.. For He is so gentle and so kind... So full of love and teaming over with kindness

Oh I sigh in such delight... For in Him there is such beauty and in Him is such delight

And there it is a dance of gratitude ... Learning it's steps and getting lost in it's ways

One of my Favorite Narnian Quotes...

“One word, Ma’am,” he said, coming back from the fire; limping because of the pain. “One word. All you’ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn’t wonder. I’m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won’t deny any of what you said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things – trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that makes you real world hollow. That’s why I’m going to stand by the play-world. I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the Overland.

A Brilliant Quote from Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking

so that others won't feel unsure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in every one.

As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
